This post is funded by the WHRI Centre for Experimental Medicine & Rheumatology (EMR) http://www.whri.qmul.ac.uk/staff/Pitzalis.html, and appointed candidate in the role of Biostatistician will be aligned closely with the Barts Clinical Trials Unit, Wolfson Institute of Preventive Medicine (http://www.wolfson.qmul.ac.uk/).

Working under the direction of senior medical statisticians (including Professor Peter Sasieni) within the Wolfson Institute of Preventive Medicine, the appointee will serve as a critical conduit between the WHRI and the world renowned biostatistical clinical trial expertise in the Wolfson Institute. The successful candidate will provide leadership on the statistical design and analysis of clinical trials within the EMR, working closely with the WHRI Bioinformatics team to construct a statistical framework for the discovery of biomarkers for patient stratification from diverse genomic and clinical data. The position would particularly suit an ambitious early career researcher with an interest in the application of new biostatistical approaches to genomic medicine in clinical trials (3 years).
